Comment:
It reversed what it was intended to do. Blood Pressure went up, anxious, nervous, canâ??t sleep. Does it affect anyone else like that?

systolic up to 167, diastolic up to 120 lisinopril 10 mg 2x daily After 3 days of 3 cups daily of Hibiscus (2 parts) and Hawthorn Berry (1 part) tea boiled 10 minutes and strained I was able to drop to 1 Lisinopril daily. I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and within 48 hours of using my c-pap, I no longer needed the tea or RX therapy.

Comment:
Been drinking hibiscus tea since 10/15, blood work done this month also shows a significant drop in lipid panel, total cholesterol went from 253 in 11/15 to 197. Blood pressure has decreased such that I have been able to discontinue one of three meds. I make ice tea and drink it throughout the day. My cardiologist is thrilled with the results.
